Hopefully this is the right forum for this inquiry. I went to my local porn emporium the other day, empowered with knowledge gained from this board: titles, stars and companies to look for. The shop had changed however, and I had a hard time finding stuff.
So my questions are:
1) The time before I went, there was a whole section devoted to Evil Angel, and this time I found exactly one film from them (which I picked up, Belladonna's No Boundaries 6). Is that company going out of business? Or do porn sellers usually buy in bulk from a producer at one time, so in another 6 months they may buy a huge pile from Evil Angel? I'm used to the way normal DVD shops work, but even they are changing practices.
2) I found quite alot of the stuff I was looking for under the "Lesbian" banner. I guess most stores will keep girls only/ solo masturbation scenes in the lesbian category? (Which I actually thought before it was pornography produced to the interest and tastes to lesbians.)
3) What determines cut-out bin stuff for most stores - just back stock, or just anything that isn't selling? I can't tell by the dates, some of the stuff seemed new but cheaply made.

If I may hazard a (layman's) guess to your post. 1) The economy isn't good. I think the prices of the Evil Angel stuff might be deterring the casual buyers. It could be the store has to make a minimum purchase which might total out a tad to high for their rate of turnover. 3) Right now comps seem to be the best selling stuff. That might be what you were seeing. Again...just my guess.

Thanks - I was wondering if they are more popular than the average release, but if there are minimum orders for their stuff, that might do it. There was still a Wicked area, but Vivid wasn't well represented, or even the "Jack's" series...
